Where can I find more information about the JS VM used in Nakama

[au-re]

I am running into issues when importing some external npm packages in the typescript runtime, for example:

• libraries to make http requests, node-fetch, axios, superagent
• uuid (issue with crypto.getRandomValue)

I’m not sure if it’s possible to polyfill my way out of these errors, but it would help to know what the differences between the VM nakama uses and NodeJS/V8 are in terms of features / API.

Is this documented somewhere?

Hello @au-re. Currently, the VM relies on Goja VM which at the moment only supports ES5. The details can be found here: Basics - Heroic Labs Documentation

Additionally, is there any usecase that http request(Function Reference - Heroic Labs Documentation) from Nakama doesn’t support? Could you elaborate on the motivation to use node-fetch, axios, or superagent?
